Morphology and Adaptation of Immature Stages of Hemipteran Insects
© 2019 JETIR January 2019, Volume 6, Issue 1 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Morphology and Adaptation of Immature Stages of Hemipteran Insects Devina Seram and Yendrembam K Devi Assistant Professor, School of Agriculture, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab Introduction Insect Adaptations An adaptation is an environmental change so an insect can better fit in and have a better chance of living. Insects are modified in many ways according to their environment. Insects can have adapted legs, mouthparts, body shapes, etc. which makes them easier to survive in the environment that they live in and these adaptations also help them get away from predators and other natural enemies. Here are some adaptations in the immature stages of important families of Hemiptera. Hemiptera are hemimetabolous exopterygotes with only egg and nymphal immature stages and are divided into two sub-orders, homoptera and heteroptera. The immature stages of homopteran families include Delphacidae, Fulgoridae, Cercopidae, Cicadidae, Membracidae, Cicadellidae, Psyllidae, Aleyrodidae, Aphididae, Phylloxeridae, Coccidae, Pseudococcidae, Diaspididae and heteropteran families Notonectidae, Corixidae, Belastomatidae, Nepidae, Hydrometridae, Gerridae, Veliidae, Cimicidae, Reduviidae, Pentatomidae, Lygaeidae, Coreidae, Tingitidae, Miridae will be discussed. Homopteran families 1. Delphacidae – Eg. plant hoppers They comprise the largest family of plant hoppers and are characterized by the presence of large, flattened spurs at the apex of their hind tibiae. Eggs are deposited inside plant tissues, elliptical in shape, colourless to whitish. Nymphs are similar in appearance to adults except for size, colour, under- developed wing pads and genitalia. 2. Fulgoridae – Eg. lantern bugs They can be recognized with their antennae inserted on the sides & beneath the eyes. -

The Planthopper Genus Trypetimorpha: Systematics and Phylogenetic Relationships (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Tropiduchidae)
JOURNAL OF NATURAL HISTORY, 1993, 27, 609-629 The planthopper genus Trypetimorpha: systematics and phylogenetic relationships (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Tropiduchidae) J. HUANG and T. BOURGOINt* Pomological Institute of Shijiazhuang, Agricultural and Forestry Academy of Sciences of Hebei, 5-7 Street, 050061, Shijiazhuang, China t Mus#um National d'Histoire Naturelle, Laboratoire d'Entomologie, 45 rue Buffon, F-75005, Paris, France (Accepted 28 January 1993) The genus Trypetimorpha is revised with the eight currently recognized species described or re-described. Four new species are described and seven new synonymies are proposed. Within Trypetimorphini sensu Fennah (1982), evidences for the monophyly of each genus are selected, but Caffrommatissus is transferred to the Cixiopsini. Monophyly of Trypetimorphini, restricted to Trypetimorpha and Ommatissus, is discussed. A key is given for the following Trypetimorpha species: (1) T. fenestrata Costa ( = T. pilosa Horvfith, syn. n.); (2) T. biermani Dammerman (= T. biermani Muir, syn. n.; = T. china (Wu), syn. n.; = T. formosana Ishihara, syn. n.); (3) T. japonica Ishihara ( = T. koreana Kwon and Lee, syn. n.); (4) T. canopus Linnavuori; (5) T. occidentalis, sp. n. (= T. fenestrata Costa, sensu Horvfith); (6) T. aschei, sp. n., from New Guinea; (7) T. wilsoni, sp. n., from Australia; (8) T. sizhengi, sp. n., from China and Viet Nam. Study of the type specimens of T. fenestrata Costa shows that they are different from T. fenestrata sensu Horvfith as usually accepted, which one is redescribed here as T. occidentalis.

Correlation of Stylet Activities by the Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter, Homalodisca Coagulata (Say), with Electrical Penetration Graph (EPG) Waveforms

E, Riverside, CA 92501, USA dCollege of Life Sciences, Peking Univerisity, Beijing, China Received 5 May 2005; received in revised form 29 November 2005; accepted 29 November 2005 Abstract Glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca coagulata (Say), is an efficient vector of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf), the causal bacterium of Pierce’s disease, and leaf scorch in almond and oleander. Acquisition and inoculation of Xf occur sometime during the process of stylet penetration into the plant. That process is most rigorously studied via electrical penetration graph (EPG) monitoring of insect feeding. This study provides part of the crucial biological meanings that define the waveforms of each new insect species recorded by EPG. By synchronizing AC EPG waveforms with high-magnification video of H. coagulata stylet penetration in artifical diet, we correlated stylet activities with three previously described EPG pathway waveforms, A1, B1 and B2, as well as one ingestion waveform, C. Waveform A1 occured at the beginning of stylet penetration. This waveform was correlated with salivary sheath trunk formation, repetitive stylet movements involving retraction of both maxillary stylets and one mandibular stylet, extension of the stylet fascicle, and the fluttering-like movements of the maxillary stylet tips. -

Hemiptera: Gerromorpha: Gerridae) from Tamil Nadu, India, with a Key to the Species
Zootaxa 3186: 64–68 (2012) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2012 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) Lathriobates manohardasi sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Gerromorpha: Gerridae) from Tamil Nadu, India, with a key to the species KAILASH CHANDRA1 & E. EYARIN JEHAMALAR2 Zoological Survey of India, New Alipore, Kolkata- 700 053, India. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract Lathriobates manohardasi sp. nov. is described and compared with known congeners. A key to the species of the genus of world is included. Key words: Trepobatinae, Kannyakumari District, Tamil Nadu, India Introduction Gerridae comprises a group of semi-aquatic bugs that spend almost their entire lives skating above the water sur- face of lentic and lotic environments. Approximately 750 species are distributed among 60 genera and 9 subfami- lies of Gerridae (Moreira, 2011). Thirumalai (2002) reported one species each of Calyptobates, Gnomobates, Lathriobates, and Naboandelus of the subfamily Trepobatinae from India. The world fauna of Lathriobates includes four species: L. obscures Miyamoto, L. rufus Polhemus & Polhemus, L. johorensis Polhemus & Polhemus and L. raja Distant. A fifth species Lathriobates manohardasi sp. nov. is described here. The genus Cryptobates Esaki, 1929 (Gerridae: Heteroptera) is a junior homonym of Cryptobates Fairmaire, 1882 of the family Tenebrionidae (Coleoptera), so the name Lathriobates was proposed as a replacement name by Polhemus (2004), with type species Gerris raja Distant, 1910. Material and methods Study area: Kannyakumari is regarded as the southern most district of Tamil Nadu. The district lies between 77° 15` and 77° 36` E longitude and 8° 03` and 8° 35` N latitude. -

(Hemiptera: Gerromorpha: Veliidae) from Tamil Nadu, India: the first species of the genus described from the Indian subcontinent E. EYARIN JEHAMALAR Zoological Survey of India, New Alipore, Kolkata- 700053, India. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Strongylovelia lillyae sp. nov. is described from Kanyakumari district, Tamil Nadu, India and constitutes the first species of the genus from Indian subcontinent. The new species is closely related to Strongylovelia setosa Zettel & Tran and S. vasarhelyii Zettel & Tran from Vietnam. A distribution map and photographs of S. lillyae sp. nov. are presented here. Key words: Haloveliinae, taxonomy, Kanyakumari district Introduction Members of the limnic genus Strongylovelia Esaki (1924), are very small tear-shaped water striders, ranging in size between 0.89 mm and 1.80 mm, and belonging to the subfamily Haloveliinae of family Veliidae. The subfamily Haloveliinae contains five known genera, of which, three are marine - Halovelia Bergroth (1893), Xenobates Esaki (1927) and Haloveloides Andersen (1992) - and two are freshwater - Strongylovelia Esaki (1924) and Entomovelia Esaki (1930). The members of Strongylovelia are distributed across the Indomalayan (Sri Lanka, India, southern and southwest China, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Borneo, Malaysia and Philippines) and Australasian (New Britain and New Guinea) regions. Presently, 27 species and 2 subspecies are recognized, including the new species described here (Esaki, 1924, 1926, Lundblad, 1933, Polhemus, 1979, Lansbury, 1993, Lansbury & Zettel, 1997, Zettel, 2003a,b, Chen et al.
